A few days later, Bernal blogger noticed a man running in a speedo in the same neighborhood.
My guess: These runners either misheard that bareFOOT running is the new, hip, hardcore thing to do. OR they want to avoid the dreaded runner's tan!
And, as it turns out, my guess was correct. According to a "micro-interview" with the Bernal Heights bloger, bikini jogger wants to avoid tan lines.
I can sort of understand bikini runner's motivation. But, I have to admit, running nearly-naked in San Francisco's cold weather is... Brave? Crazy?
And what about bouncing???
My girls would not be happy after even a mile of running without... ahem... support.
I should also note that the while speedo-runner wears running shoes, bikini-runner runs in flip flops. I guess that's one way to make sure you don't heel-strike?
What's your take on these tan-seeking runners? Brave, crazy, or just unique?
